Additional Information: Perhaps the most famous of Dalí’s paintings, The Persistence of Memory is a world of ‘soft’ watches in a finis mundi. (land’s end) symbolizing the apparent collapse of time and space or Camembert of time and space, as Dalí described them. I approached this painting as a meditation on timelessness vividly conveyed by the ethereal, and at times nostalgic, strains of the string section
